See the outlines of the Roman hierarchy in Cicero (de
Legibus, ii.7, 8), Livy (i. 20), Dionysius Halicarnassensis
(1. ii. [c. 63, sqq,] p. 119-129, edit. Hudson), Beaufort
(Republique Romaine, tom. i. p. 1-90), and Moyle (vol. i. p.
10-55). The last is the work of an English whig, as well as
of a Roman antiquary.
